Bakersfield Shutout Over TMU in 3-0 Exhibition Win

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. – California State University, Bakersfield women's soccer opened its preseason slate Wednesday night with an exhibition match against The Master's University. The Roadrunners scored twice in the first half and again early in the second while keeping the visitors off the scoreboard to earn a 3-0 win. Although an uncountable contest, it proved to be a solid foundation to build upon ahead of the 2022 season.
 
Quotes From Vecchio
